Not only is this a great line, it appears in a very good piece.

My first date ever (as in, I had never been on a date before) was Silence of the Lambs.

Protest sign at Albany Hands Off Rally

My favorite sign from the Albany #HandsOff rally.

Great idea. Just donated!

hand-written sign in a window of the IMLS building that says "SOS IMLS"

New — Institute of Museum and Library Sciences employees were allowed back in the building this morning to gather belongings after all being put on admin leave by DOGE yesterday. Supporters have gathered in front of the building and staffers inside have posted a visible sign that says "SOS IMLS."

I think the Target boycott is working. TikTok search suggestion on the official Target page? “Costco finds this week”

Or a play.

Video obtained by CNN shows the rear landing gear of the jet buckling and the right wing shearing away in a fireball after the plane landed hard on the runway.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

I am working on a map of Carthaginian Spain this afternoon. The client sent along an exemplar map (always helpful), with instructions to: "Include all towns shown on map, with the exception of Sexi."

It's the fist time someone's said, "Make it look like that other map, but less Sexi."

It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break.

Looks like I’ve got a new project — specifically, putting together a plan to continually contact all my elected officials and clearly communicate my feelings on *gestures vaguely* all this. Good thing I have a course release this semester…

WIRED is tracking numerous reports of Musk-related shenanigans across the federal govt.

We're looking for fed employees open to discussing the activity they're seeing or to help confirm other reports. Anonymity offered.

Isn’t distance also measured in time? Like “that’s three hours away”

This bunny (my 13 year old bun named Eclipse) approves.

Grading student papers — and discovering hallucinated quotes that are supposedly/cited from an article that is *all about how GenAI hallucinates quotes*. //Sigh//

Wait — 10-1? IU football is actually good? This is weird.

This is Eclipse. He’s a 12ish-year-old bunny who loves to nap on our laps under blankets.

I’m running in an uncontested race tomorrow to continue to be a Library Commissioner. If you live in Grand Rapids, MI, feel free to vote for me, if you want. Thus ends my campaigning.

One of the perks of being an introvert is that even when people cancel meetings/events that I’m looking forward to, I still get the dopamine rush of “I can stay home in comfy clothes!”
